Dead Reckoning and Wind Finding Accuracy over the North Atlantic

Since the original survey by Powell, the requirement for aircraft over the Atlantic to maintain their flight-planned or recleared track has been established. The following figures covering flights made by Trans-Canada Air Lines between Canada and the U.K. during the period 8 November 1956 to 16 Marc...
